In the global context of growing concerns regarding the sustainability and social responsibility of companies, the concept of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) has become increasingly relevant. In Romania, current and future legislation requires companies to report ESG-related information, paving the way for a significant change in the way organizations approach issues.

While all eyes are turned to the #Coreper meeting awaiting the outcome of the vote on the #CSDDD, EU policymakers agreed on Wednesday to postpone by two years the deadline for the adoption of sector-specific standards for companies' sustainability reporting. 📅 Initially set in the #CSRD for June 2024, EFRAG had started working on those in 2022 but paused in Spring 2023 by direct request of the European Commission to prioritise other work on the implementation of the first set of sector-agnostic EU standards (#ESRS). 🤝 Although we regretted that decision, we welcome that Members of the European Parliament and Council of the European Union negotiators further precised the mandate for the EU Commission to adopt 8️⃣ of the sustainability standards “as soon as each is ready”, or at the latest by 2026. ➡ As outlined by NGOs, business and financial leaders as well as academics, the development and adoption of sector-specific standards is instrumental to make the #reporting exercise easier for companies, while ensuring meaningful and comparable information for investors.

In the latest issue of International Accountant, Maria Antonia Garcia Benau, Laura Sierra García, and Dr. Nicolás Gambetta dive into the growing challenges surrounding the assurance of sustainability reporting. As stakeholders demand more reliable sustainability data, the assurance of such information has become essential. Despite the EU introducing mandatory assurance through Directive 2022/2464, many challenges remain, including independence, market structure, and regulatory gaps.

The IAB Group supporting mandatory International Reporting Standards At Cop27, it was declared that International Reporting Standards will soon be mandatory worldwide. With this mandate, companies are to report ESG (environmental, social, and governance) data uniformly, aiding in distinguishing favourable from unfavourable practices and enabling stakeholders to more consciously engage with organisations. In alignment with this industry shift, the IAB has introduced the IFRS International Reporting Standards Level 4 qualification, a program currently experiencing high demand.

The integration of material sustainability matters into the core strategies of companies is not just desirable, but it is now considered as an imperative by investors, as noted in this new report published by OECD - OCDE. They're holding a webinar next week (link below) on the topic if you want to register (including International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA) Chair Gabriela Figueiredo Dias). If you sit on a Board this will be an informative session, illuminating the evolving dynamics and regulatory frameworks governing corporate sustainability that are aligned with the G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance. Wherever high-quality assurance for all sustainability-related information disclosed might not be possible or is too costly, jurisdictions may require companies to obtain assurance of specific sustainability-related disclosures, such as GHG emissions. #CorporateGovernance #Ethics #BoardofDirectors #ACCA #OEDC
